"The night is deep but there is hope I see"


Poem Artwork

Idealist

 

High clouds drift brushing past the full moon's face

Bordered bone white against the deep blue night

A dance of seven veils of cosmic grace

Humankind always reaches for the light

 

Eyes irresistibly drawn to the sky

We feel triumphant when the moon breaks through

Our hope ascending as she rises high

That maybe our full moon dreams can come true

 

Frozen blue sparkle flashing through the mist

Improbably high impossibly far

Just my luck to be an idealist

Humankind always struggles for a star

 

Eyes irresistibly drawn up away

Far distant star do you sparkle for me?

Does this mean love will dawn at break of day?

The night is deep but there is hope I see

 

High clouds drift brushing past the full moon's face

Frozen blue sparkle flashing through the mist

A dance of seven veils of cosmic grace

Just my luck to be an idealist

Hey friend and fellow poet, this one so easily captures my imagination and sense of wonder as the images stark and brooding flow through my mind like a song.Well done my friend Steve, well done.
